Have made this salad several times. I don't heat up the sauce as I feel it makes the salad less crisp and fresh tasting. It's a great salad just to have in the fridge and grab for a quick meal or snack. I love having it around especially in the hot summer days, cool and refreshing! Just stir it every so often to keep the salad coated and marinating. I also add a medium zucchini to the salad for some extra veggies. It's excellent for diabetics in that it's low on the GI and GL so it doesn't affect my sugars even with the small amount of honey.
